It was very messed up this year. I have bene going to Meron for 6 years and live near by so i know the routes,etc.I left Meron at 3:30 am on Motzei Shabbos/Sunday Morning to get home with some friends.We live nearby. We got to the bus parking lots which are usually very organized and there were only 2 busses and at least 500 people trying to get on.We decided to walk back to Tzfat.Since we are from around the area, we cut through the forests but before that we walked dwon the road.It looked like Krias Yam Suf. 1000’s of yidden walking towards meron from miles away.. We eventually made it back after four hours.Im not mad at the transportation since i wasnt travelling with anybody in my family but if i had kids with me or my wife, i would not have been able to hike back. Hopefully next year they fix it up. The main problem was that the main parking lot got full very early and cause major traffic jams.
